Hand Built Pottery & the Living Art of Bonsai

The Studios - the passions of bonsai and pottery are connected here. From the start, these artforms were part of the conversation and interest Merritt and Deb shared. As they established their life together, they looked for a home with space grow their love for bonsai and pottery. Hardwood Lane Studios is the result of this search.

Pottery Studio - the place where Deb creates hand-built functional and decorative pottery. As much as possible, Deb sources North Carolina clay for her pieces. Through a combination of simple elegance, texture, shadow, and contrast, Deb transforms clay into usable forms.

Bonsai Garden - a relaxing space where Merritt develops and displays several styles of bonsai. Applying different techniques to different tree species, this living art shares space with Deb and Merritt’s vegetable beds, fruit trees, and blueberry grove.
